Excellent service. Exceptional guitar repair services. Best prices in Worcester County.
Brian was super friendly and knowledgeable. He helped me out w setup for a new Fender Strat. Lots of inventory and repair services if you need them.
Not very busy as I had expected. I looked at some very nice acoustic guitars. The carry Larrivee 😊
Love it he store. It has a nice collection of instruments coming in and out. Some consignment guitars and basses. Great people, and they don’t try to sell you when your browsing!
Bought an USB audio interface for recording. I really didnt even know it existed. Will try kt later tonight. Great service
I was never able to get signed-up for lessons despite using their online platform and calling several times. There seems to be a disconnect between the administrators and the teachers that makes this place dysfunctional.Edit: See the response from the owner below. True, I was informed that the admins have spoken to the piano teachers (only after I call them to ask about the delay in response); however, I was never contacted by a piano teacher to setup a lesson. Additionally my schedule wasnt unusual... if I remember correctly I put on the form that I am fully available Monday through Friday.Owner, you already have good reviews here, no need to posture. I hope you learn to use feedback to better your business and yourself.
Recently brought in a Custom Hiwatt 50W amp to have the grill cover replaced, and had the opportunity to meet one of the techs at Union Music, Brian Martin. This guy loves his work! You can see it in his eyes; very personable, easy to talk with and hes laid back, yet excitable about music and instrument repairs.I will just say, that when the work was done, I was extremely happy with the results and how the amp looked! And to note, the gill lining was lined up more evenly than the original lining out of factory!!Hands down, great work Brian!! Absolutely would recommend this tech at Union Music anytime for amp repair.
Union has been the place our family has gone for years for everything from guitars to strings to even kazoos. This year we bought a new Yamaha for our youngest son making it four generations to have the privilege of shopping at Union Music. They may not be as big as some soulless chain store (you know the one) but they are real musicians selling quality to anyone who has a heart to learn. Also they have lessons for all ages but no judgment if you dont know how to do something. Remember small business is best
A friendly mellow atmosphere. My granddaughter & I ENJOYED our experience there & they had exactly what we were looking for. We will return.
The store as a whole is great. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable, the instrument selection is always changing and well taken care of. However, when Ive had work done on my guitars I was less than impressed. I had a setup done on one guitar that really wasnt up to snuff, and a refretting on another guitar that was sloppy and damaged the guitar. I still shop there for strings and other supplies, but as far as having work done Im looking elsewhere.
Great people, used and new equipment. Really like this place. Been going there for years
Some of the stuff is a little overpriced, but when your only competition is Guitar Center the next town over, its not easy to have similar prices. Its worth supporting a local music shop. Plus, the staff are always nice. Pretty sure the owner works there every day.
A good place to find used/new acoustic guitars, fenders and other brands. But overall limited in inventory.I remember it being better in the past. I like to keep small businesses going so Ill keep going there for services but look elsewhere for new toys
Very helpful staff! Wonderful people who love music and it shows! Always find something good deals here. If youre new, theyll even give lessons.
Knowledgeable, kind and courteous staff representing all levels of Worcester musicians needs in a very supportive environment. Will often match if not beat many big box store prices. Let this establishment continue forever. Please support them!
Great local music store! I recently needed a gig bag for my sons electric bass, looked online at Amazon, Sweetwater etc, went to Guitar Center and ended up buying the same gig bag at Union Music that I saw everywhere else and it was $10.00 less than all the other places!
Ive been a customer for decades. Last month I had a set up done - got the guitar back in less than a week - set up nicely done, guitar polished and cleaned up. Thanks!
1963 - At age 14, I walked into Union Pawn Shop on Front street.I ask the proprietor, Hey mister, How much is that tiger red Stella guitar in the window?Can you play he asks.A little I reply.He takes it out of the window and hands it to me.Show me.I flip it upside down and plink something out.He says $15 a week until its paid offYou got a job?I got a paper route.Im thrilled to make the very first purchase of my life!As I head out the door, he calls,Hey kid! arent you gonna take your guitar?You cant practice if you dont take it with youI sign a piece of paper and off I go.Been buying my gear there ever since.Carl Camp and crew are the Best thing that ever happened to the musicians of Worcester County!
I play tenor sax at my school and this is a great place to get my supplies! The people are really nice as well who know a good thing about music therum. :-)
Best music store in the city. Knowledgeable staff and fair prices on instruments.
Staff is the best... Great little mom & pop store..
Went in to grab some picks because I broke my last one mid jam, they had a wide selection. Place looked like it had a lot of products to meet a musicians needs. No complaints.
UNION MUSIC IS HANDS-DOWN MY NEW FAVORITE MUSIC STORE IN THE AREA.EXCELLENT BUSINESS. GREAT PRICES. THEY EVEN DO CONSIGNMENT! IT IS AWESOME. IM A PROFESSIONAL DJ & THEY DONT EVEN HAVE ANY DJ GEAR, HOWEVER THEY DO* HAVE A GREAT VARIETY OF RECORDING EQUIPMENT. AS A DJ, THIS STORE HAS NO DJ EQUIPMENT ***AND I STILL GIVE IT FIVE STARS+. THATS HOW YA KNOW ITS GREAT!!🤑😎👍A++ . GREAT STORE. AWESOME CUSTOMER SERVICE & LOCATION.
Known the manager Bob for years, great guy, good service, he will only sell you what you need, no pressure 👍
Really nice people, you buy here for their knowledge unlike the mall stores
I buy all my guitars and guitar strings here very excellent staff.
Great service...selection is a bit limited but they can order what you want.
This place is really awesome they helped me with a lot and I’m always gonna go back
Gave my guitar a poor setup (buzzing strings, high action). Inventory is small, store has really gone down hill over the years, unfortunately its one of the only stores of its kind in the area.
Amber was great. Very knowledgeable on guitar equipment and accessories.
You can buy new or used instruments, everyone that works here is very willing to help you and answer your question.
Good selection of guitars.Lots of new Guilds..
Staff is very helpful, happy to assist in any way. Great prices!
Thier very friendly thier helpfull an answer any questions you may have
Thanks, but no thanks. Crappy run down shop located in the one of MAs W cities that has seen better days.Im sorry that I wasted my time driving from my home base out of state to acquire an item that was said to be available, but wasnt. Specifically, I committed to pay for the item in full up front over the phone to ensure I wouldnt waist if my time, but the folks at Union insisted that they would hold the item & that paying in advance was not necessary. Despite this, they sold the item.When I arrived to pickup the item, a lackadaisical associate slumped behind the counter informed me that the item was no longer available. Furthermore, he admitted that he was supposed to call & let me know the status of the sale, yet neglected to call.The associate subsequently offered to allow me to purchase some other item in the store, since I was there. None of which was vaguely similar to the aforementioned item nor was any discount offered. How kind of him to allow me to purchase an item from his store. Im sure other prospective customers might have been extended such as gracious opportunity.Im sorry that I have to leave a less than desirable review, but Union a music could have provided much better service & I am merely left disappointed with how they handled the whole situation.As I stated, I offered to pay up front & in advance in full, but was assured that was not necessary. Common courtesy & decency is up for debate with regards to Union Musics dealings.
Great staff. Very friendly and lots of knowledge.
Great music store great service .
Cool customer care! Great service!
Had some work done on a guitar here and it was reasonably prices and ready on time.
Very, very good customer service, and great prices. Ive been going here with my dad for more than a decade now
Knowledgeable friendly but dated building and hard parking at times
Lessons are available which is great. Their luthier didnt impress me with his setup.
This shop fixes digital keyboards. I brought my Yamaha P140 here to replace a faulty volume slider, and everything was great!
Got to love locally owned music stores!
Really awesome customer service!
Good local music store
Great service. Cool little joint.
